This and the following three slides were published under the heading "Density-dependent colour scanning electron micrographs of samples of NHMUK R12562, an ungual claw of an indeterminate theropod dinosaur, and NHMUK R4493, ribs from an indeterminate dinosaur." This is figure (a) Amorphous carbon-rich material (red) surrounded by dense material (green). Scale bar, 5 μm.
